Chapter 3, Problem 27PDQ
When working out genetics problems in this and succeeding chapters, alwaysassumethatmembersof the P1 generation are homozygous, unless the information or data you are given require you to do otherwise.
To assess Mendel's law of segregation using tomatoes, a true-breeding tall variety (SS) is crossed with a true-breeding short variety (ss). The heterozygous tall plants (Ss) were crossed to produce the two sets of F2 data as follows:
| Set 1 | Set II |
| 30 tall | 300 tall |
| 5 short | 50 short |
(a) Using chi-square analysis, analyze the results for both datasets. Calculate x2 values, and estimate the p values in both cases.
(b) From the analysis in part (a), what can you conclude about the importance of generating large datasets in experimental settings?
